On this weeks show I get around to playing ‘Pissed’ written by Adam Bomb covered by Zen Motel. Then as we’re seeing the aforementioned Adam Bomb on the 2nd I play one of his tracks. Icelandic band Sign, who finish up their UK gigs before Download at the Bar Monsta on June 1st also have two tracks from their current album played.

Episode 39

A short, but very sweet, show this week. I’m saving myself until next week, you’ve been warned! The first song I play is ‘Destroy’ by Mary’s Kids from their, so far, only release on Bootleg Booze. To find out more details go to www.myspace.com/maryskidsmusic Next up is a live track by Washington DC’s finest Adam West. Recorded Debaser, Stockholm in the Autumn of 2005. Look out for a new Adam West album and European Tour this year.

I then play three songs that can be found on those marvellous ‘Top Of The Pops’ ‘70’s ‘not original artist’ compilation LPs. I then talk about the internet rumour that Hellacopters drummer Robban could be joining Hanoi Rocks. Remember; RUMOUR. So I play The Wild Kings track ‘Down At The Wild Kingdom’ from their one and only 7” on Wild Kingdom Records (Natch). I finish of the show with The Briefs track ‘She’s Just A Girl On The Block’. Next week, hopefully will contain some Warrior Soul, some Day 21, maybe some Loyalties and if the postman delivers in time some new Hellacopters.

Episode 38

I also talk about my trip to see Richard Bacchus and the Luckiest Girls at the Bar Monsta. All the bands that night suffered from the most appalling PA I’ve ever heard, or not heard as the case was. I play Richard’s opening song from the gig to highlight the point, but to hear in tune guitar and audible vocals Richard’s website is www.myspace.com/richardbacchus  I got an advance copy of the new Whitesnake CD ‘Good To Be Bad’ and it rocks, I love it so I play two tracks from it. Namely ‘Best Years’ and ‘Good To Be Bad’. Whitesnake have lined up a UK tour with Def Leppard. To see if they’re playing an Enormodome near you; www.whitesnake.com I wind the whole show up with an Adam Ant live song from the Marquee from waaaay back in 1978. The Dandy Highwayman’s website is www.adam-ant.net

Blimely, notes and show on time for a change. Another ‘Live’ in concert show and this week Hanoi Rocks take centre stage. Most of this episode is taken from their Brighton gig at the Concorde 2 on the 6th March with the encore taken from the Astoria 2 gig a day later (not a Dollar Shorter) which was drummer Lacu’s last gig with Hanoi. Hanoi are really a band on fire as these recordings show and having no monitors for Michael at the Brighton gig only added fuel to that fire. Hanoi Rocks website is www.hanoirocks.info

Episode 33

www.theparanoidsquirrelrockshow.podshow.com

This week’s episode is another ‘Live’ in concert affair featuring Ginger from the Wildhearts, who is aided and abetted by Chris Catalyst and Scott Metzger, recorded live at the Water Rats London on the 3rd March 2008. For more info on Ginger please visit www.gingerandthesoniccircus.net

Episode 31

www.theparanoidsquirrelrockshow.podshow.com

Live music this week comes from The Nomads, The Loyalties, The Fugitives and The Sweet Zeros. 

I know, I know the show and indeed are the show notes are hideously late this week. Friday and Saturday I was at the Nomads gigs, Sunday we were meeting some friends down in Haywards Heath, Monday I was meeting up with some old College buddies, yes I’m educated, Tuesday I was editing and Wednesday I recorded and uploaded it and today I get round to informing you lot!

Right, onto the link bits. The Sweet Zeros can be found and heard at www.myspace.com/thesweetzeros and the track of theirs recorded at the Dirty Water Club is the Amy Winehouse song ‘Rehab’ given a Ramones feel and yes it really works. To buy some really cool records, yes I do mean records as in vinyl, visit www.lamf.biz which is home to The Devils Juke Box Record Label which has put out the likes of the Nomads, The Damned/Motorhead Motordamned project, the aforementioned Sweet Zeros, The Humpers and even a Sonic’s Rendezvous Band 7”. I only managed to record one Fugitives song as I stupidly forgot to charge up the battery before I went out. So you get a cover of the John Lennon classic ‘Cold Turkey’. The fugitives haven’t a website so you’ll just have to check out various band members ones instead. I’ll let you Google them other wise we’ll be here all evening. Down in Brighton, with charged recorder, I taped The Loyalties set and have aired, ‘Sofa Surf’, ‘Thirteenage’ and ‘Stockholm Syndrome Homesick Blues’. The Loyalties myspace is www.myspace.com/theloyalties I played 5 Nomads songs. Opening with ‘Primordial Ooze’  from London with ‘Don’t Pull My Stings’ and ‘Crystal Ball’ with false feedback start from Brighton then back to London for the encore of ’16 Forever’ and ‘Call Off Your Dogs’. The Nomads myspace page is www.myspace.com/the_nomads I bought at the Brighton gig the Nomads ‘Live In Madrid’ DVD which is available from Muster Records www.munster-records.com which I can’t recommend enough. Obviously it has the live gig recorded in 2007 but it also has videos and live gigs from 85, 94 and two from 1999.

Episode 30

www.theparanoidsquirrelrockshow.podshow.com

Sorry for the delay in posting the show notes but you know how it goes. I start this episode off talking about the Kill Cartel gig at the Dublin Castle on the 28th January but instead of playing any Kill Cartel I decided to play ‘See You In Bogotá’ by The Roolettes, six degrees of separation indeed. For all Kill Cartel info go to www.killcartel.com and for the Roolettes it’s www.myspace.com/roolettes I ventured into Croydon on Thursday to see Drugdealer Cheerleader, Kitty Hudson and Disarm. American band the Peppermint Creeps were supposed to be the headline act but due to ‘visa’ problems their UK tour was just 10 hours at Stansted Airport immigration department. I unfortunately missed most of Disarms set but recorded the last 3 songs, ‘Get Away’, ‘She’s My Disease’ and ‘By Any Means Necessary’ which I play. To find out what Disarm are up to, their myspace page is www.myspace.com/disarmmusic Ginger, of Wildhearts fame, has his latest CD, ‘Market Harbour’ out on Round Records. I play a couple of tracks from the CD namely ‘The Queen Of Leaving’ and ‘Overeasy’. Ginger has an acoustic tour lined up. To find if he’s playing near you his website is, deep breath, www.gingerandthesoniccircus.net blimely that’s nearly as long as my podshow url!!! This weeks ‘Bands That I Thought Were Going To Be MEGA But Weren’t’ contender is The Claytown Troupe who if you’re quick you can catch them supporting The Mission and if your even quicker you can catch them at the Bar Monsta on 12th February. The two tracks that I play both come from their debut CD ‘Though The Veil’ and are ‘Real Life’ and ‘Alabama’ Their website is www.claytowntroupe.com and www.myspace.com/claytowntroupe Next weeks show will be posted late Sunday or early Monday and hopefully if all goes according to plan will feature live music from the Nomads, Fugitives and The Loyalties.

The Paranoid Squirrel Episode 3

In this weeks show we have music from Izzy Stradlin, Kill Cartel, CJ & The Satellites and AntiProduct and interviews with Jim from Kill Cartel, CJ from the Satellites and The Wildhearts and Alex Kane from AntiProduct and if you survive all that you've got the chance to win signed AntiProduct goodies!

The show can also be found at www.theparanoidsquirrelrockshow.podshow.com and on iTunes later on today and unfortunately, as this show is nearly an hour long I can’t actually put it on the Squirrel juke box.

I’m away for a couple of weeks and I said on the show that the Episode 4 would be on the 25th, but I’m going to have a couple of ‘Live’ In Concert shows over the next two weeks. I still can be reached at thesquirrels@fsmail.net
